For more on marking an answer as the "Best Answer", please visit our FAQ.I met Charlie from 'The Darling Buds Of May' and Gary the knight from 'Maid Marion and Her Merry Men' at Salisbury Playhouse in 1996 when I went to a play with my school. Charlie (don't know his real name) was directing and was lovely, Gary the knight was a grumpy git acting like an A-list celeb who was sick of the attention!
Shirley Bassey grew up with us,not in "Tiger Bay" as many think but in Portmanmoor Rd,Splott,Cardiff.She was in my sisters class and not the most popular of pupils.I recall her coming into the grocery shop where I worked to buy a dummy for Sharon her baby.She used to sing in the "Bomb+Dagger" social club a few doors away from our house and also her Mothers house.We would often see Shirley waiting at the Dowlais works for her boyfriend who would be finishing his shift.
OMG Ive met many famous people. Bumped into Wilt Chamberlain at Venice beach (He was very charming hence all the girls he had in his lifetime). Met Bob Hope at The bank I worked at in Toluca Lake (Sorry to burst anyones bubble but he was a jerk).Jimmy Baio worked with me at a dealership (very nice he is Scott Baio's cousin and does voice overs and was also on a TV show. Met the blonde guy from The Dukes of Hazards at the bank too (He was very nice and always joked with me and would ask me out on a date. I never accepted, didn't want to be flavor of the week. Oh and that was when I was very young and cute.) Saw Matthew Broderick while on vacation in Amsterdam walking along a bridge with what appeared to be his grandmother.( He winked at me He was very sweet. And he was speaking Dutch) Hanged out with Kate Jackson at the nude beach in California (ssshhh don't tell anyone) neither one of us was naked and she is very down to earth and nice Oh in case you didnt know she has a very large tatoo of a butterfly on her hand) (Heck it's been so long Im not sure if it's really a butterfly what the heck it's a tatoo). Met the blonde with the curly hair nerdy type on Saved by the Bell at the studio city branch. ( I asked him for ID and everyone laughed at me for not knowing who he was)The list would be too long. I worked at almost every branch in the North Hollywood, Toluca Lake and Studio City area for 11 years hence I've taken many of their deposits they are people too. Michael J Fox, Jim Bullocks (Sold him a car), Diana Ross, Steve McQueen, Barry White, Stevie Wonder (He signs checks with a fingerprint). Lou Asner. Andrew The Giant. Richard Nole aka Bull from Night Court (Tall very Tall, also very very smart. He likes Dennys and is always reading) My Favorite star will always be Jimmy Baio he bought me a mug when he came back from a vacation in New York that said Kiss Me I Love New York it broke about 2 or 3 months ago, had it over 13 years I was sick to my stomach.
